windlord:/usr/include> grep -r udphdr *
linux/udp.h:struct udphdr {
netinet/udp.h:struct udphdr
netinet/udp.h:struct udphdr

So /usr/include/netinet/udp.h is the right include file for that
structure.  (Structure definitions are not something that exist in a
library, really, although they may be part of the ABI for a library.)

That structure does indeed have a uh_ulen member iff _BSD_SOURCE is
defined by the application before including the header file (and various
other feature test macros are not defined).  See /usr/include/features.h
and search for __FAVOR_BSD.
